Warning: Spoilers
The movie starts with an analysis of PICA, a medical neurological disorder associated with the ingestion of non food material, such as rocks, metal, dirt. It has the opportunity to go deep into this character who suffers from PICA. So, for the most part of the movie you see this affliction from the perspective of a woman that suffers this condition. But the third act is a political stand about positive abortion. Yeap, they throw that in your face without dealing with the actual storyline that from most part of the movie is going in a different direction. The movie has some disturbing images about PICA, but what really upsetted me was the cheap use of a plot to place political idiology. The lead actress is great by the way.
